June 4, 2016
For a long time, I didn’t watch videos from the Syrian civil war. Even though I know a lot about military issues, I hate to see suffering. The Syrian civil war seemed to be nothing but untrained fanatics slaughtering everyone they could. But one day I saw a video that seemed to show a new…
Warfare that requires soldiers with unprecedented skills
June 3, 2016
Major warfare has yet to be eliminated. But from a practical standpoint, nobody has ever had the courage to seriously try. It’s clear to me that the Arab League is not only making the attempt to end war in the region, I think that this effort will be successful. The main factor in ending war…

What happened was that special forces were transformed from tactical to strategic assets. Israel has kept her capabilities hidden, but the Arab League has shown in Yemen, Syria, and Iraq…
Angels of death, AND angels of mercy
May 28, 2016
I’ve had to rewrite an old post. Currently my new computer and scanner don’t allow me to download and edit photos. American tech corporations are run by incompetent megalomaniacs who always ruin their products. So tonight I have to use material from a previous post. Hopefully I’ll be able to regain my previous ability to…
